3 cap dumps, taking our 2nd best rhd and retaining 16+mil. Keep dreaming

The value of Oiler cap dumps is getting close the value of Leaf cap dumps. Guys who would not get claimed on waivers getting all stars

Ceci and Barrie are not cap dumps. Both have term and would generate a return in any trade, and are potential flips if SJ wants to trade them for picks down the road. Puljujarvi is obviously a dump as is Benning... Benning wouldn't make the Oilers starting D even after this trade... he'd be the 7th D behind Desharnais. The Sharks will have to absorb some level of retention and take contracts back to make the money work for any contender. As great as Karlsson is, at $11.5M he's still at least a $1.5 to $2M overpay. And only that low because he's having a stellar year. Average his performance over the past 3 years and the overpay is even higher. That affects the trade value.

Any trade in which the majority of EK65’s contract is being taken & you get 3 firsts is a gift. Just say thank you & move on.

Hawks probably accept
